Tyger Tyger, burning bright, / In the forests of the night; / What immortal hand or eye, / Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

Blake's famous tiger embodies both beauty and terror, wonder and mystery. The poem does not offer easy answers but invites us to stand in awe before the power and complexity of creation. It values contemplation of life's dualities—fierce energy alongside delicate order—and trusts that this wonder is itself meaningful, even when understanding remains incomplete.
